LGJ is encouraging students in grades 9–12 to join a winter sports team this season. Participation in athletics can improve academic performance, attendance, discipline, leadership, and teamwork skills. Faculty members are asked to help recruit students by sharing the benefits of sports, telling their own experiences, and encouraging students who may benefit from a positive after-school activity. Winter sports offerings include Girls Varsity Basketball, Boys JV Basketball, Boys Varsity Basketball, and Indoor Track & Field. Interested students should contact the appropriate coach for more information.

The Bronx School for Law, Government, and Justice will host its annual Halloween Party on Friday, October 30, with separate sessions for middle school and high school students.
